I'm pretty sure only I am :-)  We're not running "spamassassin" (the
perl script who's man page you reference), what it does is irrelevant.
...unless you're using SA outside of MD, in which case you shouldn't be
posting about it on this list.

Confirmed.  MD's 'make install' used to overwrite the config file, but
that was loooong ago.  Look at the Makefile, around line 199.  If
/etc/mail/spamassassin/sa-mimedefang.cf exists it'll install the sample
SA configuration as /etc/mail/spamassassin/sa-mimedefang.cf.example
...or when you get to the point where you'd run 'make install', run 'make
-n install' first and you can see what it will do when you run it without
the -n.
